“Order, all rise, case number 141; Juggernaut verses Walling 

and Stiph. Judge, all the parties sworn in; folks please be seated and 

maintain silence during the proceedings,” said the bailiff handing over 

the docket to the Judge Takahashi. 

Judge Takahashi was in late 60,s, a diminutive woman with dark 

rimmed glasses, an American of oriental origin, come across as no- 

nonsense judge gets easily irritated if she gets a run around for her 

questions. 

“MR. Juggernaut I read your submission carefully.  You are 

suing the defendants Mr. Walling and Ms. Stiph for the return of your 

deposit of $1000 on 1BR cottage you rented from the defendants, please 

present your case,” Judge Takahashi looked at Mr. Juggernaut.

cottage was in the middle of the rainforest and close to the ocean, it 

was the ideal place for me to rent.” 

“After exchanging few emails and submitting references, I had a 

video conference with Mr. Walling and Ms. Stiph on Skype.  The 

conference ended with both parties satisfied.  Ms. Stiph asked me to 

mail a check in order of Mr. Walling since he owns the property.  The 

check was for $2,150.00, $1000 dollars for the first month rent, $1000 

towards the deposit money and $150 cleaning expenses if the cottage 

after the lease was left in a condition that requires cleanup to the
